Beautiful capture of this little lady, Sheri!! We have hundreds of them coming back every spring, and we don't have to plant the sunflowers....they drop sunflower seeds on the ground and we have sunflowers coming up everywhere. Last spring I planted seeds for the big fancy sunflowers, and the little rascals went behind me and ate them all!! #11174981
